Pleasantly surprised

Judging solely by the comments on the two MC fora and the e-mails I've received, "Spy vs. Guy" doesn't seem to be a huge success, though those who have responded have almost uniformly noted that, while m/m isn't their usual thing, they were pleasantly surprised by how much they liked the story and credited their enjoyment to the MC heat.

Stat Counter, however, tells a different story. Look how far my page views jumped yesterday, after the final chapter of SvG went online.* And then look at the most popular pages on my blog. Number two, with 166 entries in last few weeks (remembering that Stat Counter only tracks the last 500 visits), is the catch-all link for all "Peeks Beneath the Duct Tape" that I've been pasting at the bottom of each new story I submit to the EMCSA. And when I delve down a little further (no graphics for the delving, in order to preserve my visitors' privacy), I see that almost every one of those recent 166 visits linked in from SvG, Chapter 3. So apparently, the story is bringing me a lot of new visitors who prefer to lurk rather than to talk.

Well, welcome to all of you. :-) Make yourselves at home, stop by whenever you like, and drop me a line any time. Cheers!




*Note that this "picture" was taken early this morning, so the final page view count for today could be very high, as well. *fingers crossed*
